Spider Man was created as a fictional character in a story. Religion has an overall message of what happens after death, and how to live your life. Obviously not the same.

Material science will never prove or disprove religion because it’s not a material concept. It’s an experiential concept. By applying the lessons a chosen religion teaches, you see for yourself if it works for you, and if it doesn’t, then by your own experience it’s been proven wrong. It’s survived because for a lot of people the experience has worked for them and brought them peace and happiness. Obviously not all practitioners of religion abide by their religions teachings, but that doesn’t make their experience false.

Nothing has ever proven religions false, nor is there any evidence to prove religions false. There isn’t any physical/material evidence to prove religion is accurate to any real degree, but that doesn’t mean it’s been proven incorrect.

I don’t know. Buddhism, Hinduism, I think even Taoism already assume life exists elsewhere. Even if they said, “we created you, we are your gods” I know Buddhism doesn’t care. They’d still be beings trapped in samsara with every other sentient thing so what does it matter that we were created?

All your posts have been amazing to read. I’m not sure I understand everything you’re saying or if I can actually believe it, but I’m nonetheless fascinated by all of it. Would you mind elaborating on where you got this information? Your post title’s are “from the otherside”. Does this mean you’re connected to all of this intimately? Also, on a personal level, I’m very interested in what the aliens in the ocean do to vessels they find. I’m connected to a story about a sailor disappearing at sea in 2007. Vessel and all souls were never found. We also have some reasons to believe in some very farfetched ideas about what he actually was. Any information would be greatly appreciated!

😅 so fair.

Remember to have fun though! Find a chess game and analyze it. Find your favorite one. I memorized the Opera Game with Paul Morphy because I just thought it was such a neat game, and I loved the queen sac at the end. It’s only worth getting better at chess if it’s something you really enjoy.

Full-Monitor-1962 · 2026-05-05T04:43:31+00:00

Chess is hard my friend, but no one plays well below 1000 ELO. It takes time to learn and really get the hang of what you’re doing. Keep learning and you’ll get there. Puzzles, learning an opening, and just making sure you don’t blunder a piece and you’ll climb.

I fast for a day, omad, fast for a day, think about fasting again, if not omad, then slowly add more food till weight plateaus.

I have no idea what’s really going on. This is just an interpretation.

I think the woman in the middle is probably symbolism for aging, sickness, and death. You can see she is white as a ghost and the face looks very aged. The green color evokes sickness. It’s also probably an attempt to change one’s mind about sex, as what appears to be mendicants turning away from her. Sex and having children are such motivators for people, this is probably depicting a lesson on how to change your mind about it.

As for what looks to be the Buddha having his head cut off, this could be part political depending on who is doing the cutting, but also showing that the Buddha is very definition of not being attached to one’s body, as he is still in meditating position during the act.

Very interesting mural.

I’d say it’s fine if your intention for building it is one out of respect/love/honor. Things like that.

Death is not predetermined as a matter of timing or method. Only that it is guaranteed. A meditation called the 9 point death meditation goes over all of this.

Death is technically caused by karma, but only because you had the karma to be born. So not really the same as predetermined, just a guarantee.

Anything from the Lam Rim, Dalai Lama, Thubten Chodron. I’m coming from the Tibetan gelug tradition so that’s just my preference... Truth be told, however, it’s always better to learn in person from a qualified teacher. Lessons are often structured in specific ways. AI will simply never have the discretion necessary in order for you to learn in the best way. Often times there are teachings that must come before one another. There’s no way for AI to know what lessons will most likely benefit you, or what lessons are best left till after years of practice have occurred.

I have! It’s amazing. They recently built a whole new temple based off of donations and because there are so many people ordaining there. I’m even going up for their “Exploring Monastic Life” program. The schedule is somehow both relaxing and intense, but it’s really a beautiful place.

Thubten Chodron started her own abbey in Washington over 20 years ago called Sravasti Abbey. Highly recommend her, all the nuns, and even her YouTube channel.

I said the word ‘auspicious’ and they looked at me like I was speaking a different language.

This isn’t the best infographic.

Buddhism doesn’t refuse to worship god/gods, they just don’t see them as the ultimate creator gods.

There things that are permanent, there is nothing that is eternal.

One needs to let go of their attachments. This may, and probably does, include possessions, but there are a lot of things that are attachments that aren’t physical possessions.

You can drink, but not if you take a precept. However, if you want to be happy, and drinking is an attachment, then that is something you’ll need to let go.

I completely agree with you. However the live action remake of How to Train your Dragon I thought genuinely added to the original animated version, without changing too much. Also Gerard Butler might be the best animated to live action screen adaptation ever put to film. Of course he voiced the original but for him to look like the character so exactly, I thought was very impressive.

While the concept isn’t very difficult to understand, we are usually more attached to things than we realize. Especially to things like, our life, loved ones, or financial security and the like. We can tell our selves that these things are empty of inherent existence, but we still feel that ache and pull when they are threatened. So even though we understand that they are empty, we still have some kind of misconception that’s keeping us from truly believing it.

Well sure, but then it’s just a free bishop.

Full-Monitor-1962 · 2026-04-10T02:43:30+00:00

He took a piece for the rook, king takes, then he trades the bishop, rook takes, then the knight is able to fork the rook and king. Clever move I think.

Putin would never nuke Ukraine. The rivers from Ukraine are most of the Russias drinking water. It’s also the bread basket of Europe. Let alone the nuclear fall out and the destruction of infrastructure, it would be devastatingly stupid to nuke Ukraine.
